Binaural Medicine

Binaural beats are auditory processing artifacts, or apparent sounds. Two tones of slightly different frequencies are presented separately, one in each ear, using stereo headphones.  The brain will perceive these two tones as a single tone and will process the information as a single beat. Binaural beats influence the brain through brainwave entrainment - directly altering moods, behavior, and consciousness.

Using binaural beats we can entrain our brainwaves to resonate at beneficial frequencies for the purpose of healing and relaxation. Below is a brief overview of the five brain wave frequencies currently understood today.

Gamma

Gamma brain waves oscillate between the range of 40 to 70 Hz., or cycles per second.  They are the information and sensory-binding brainwave – or the brainwave that is able to link and process information from all parts of the brain. 

Associated With:
  • High levels of intelligence
  • Compassion
  • High levels of self-control
  • Satisfaction and happiness
  • High memory function
  • Sharpening of the 5 senses
  • Lessening of depression


Beta

Gamma brain waves oscillate between the range of 12 to 38 Hz., or cycles per second. This frequency range is associated with our normal, everyday waking state and are typically produced by the left hemisphere of the brain. 

Associated With:
  • Logical thinking 
  • Critical Analysis 
  • Active attention
  • Quick wit
  • Goal oriented
  • Outgoing socially
  • Motivation to take action
  • Increased IQ
  • Increased energy (Too much Beta is responsible for anxiety and nervous energy.)



Alpha

Alpha  brain waves oscillate between the range of  8 to 12 Hz., or cycles per second.  This frequency range is associated with  daydreaming, fantasizing and creative visualization. It is often associated with a deeply relaxed state, and with being in a light trance or during meditation.  This is the frequency of the earth's magnetic field.

Associated With:
  • Creative visualization
  • Peace
  • Relaxation
  • Reduced anxiety & nervousness
  • As treatment for insomnia
  • Being in Flow
  • Improved learning
  • Improved Memory
  • Improved social interaction


Theta

Theta  brain waves oscillate between the range of 4 to 7 Hz., or cycles per second. This frequency range is associated with  intuition, and allows us to access our subconscious. It is activated during dream sleep and deep meditation states. Theta is also associated with creative thinking, and allows us to tap into our inner genius.

Associated With:
  • Early stages of sleep
  • Dreaming
  • Powerful surges of emotion
  • Spiritual experiences
  • Deeper emotional connection with self
  • Strong intuition
  • Enhanced link to subconscious thoughts & processing
  • Improved long term memory
  • Improved ability to heal brain & body
  • Ability to hyperfocus
  • Boosted immune system
  • Enhanced creativity
  • Deep relaxation



Delta

Delta  brain waves oscillate between the range of  1 to 4 Hz., or cycles per second.  This frequency range is produced during deep sleep, and is associated with physical regeneration, rejuvenation, and  "Tri-thalamic entrainment", in which the hypothalamus, pineal and pituatary glands are synchronized. 

Associated With:
  • Increased empathy (feeling & understanding of others’ emotions)
  • Being completely unconscious (deepest sleep state)
  • Release anti-aging hormones
  • Healing your own body
  • Release of Melatonin
  • Deep intuition
  • Spiritual experiences
  • Astral travel
  • Reduce cortisol levels
